Abstract

The pubic bone is an unusual site for an aneurysmal bone cyst. This case, a 15year old male patient, was diagnosed as an aneurysmal bone cyst in the superior ramus of the right pubic bone. He was treated by complete excision of the superior ramus and on five years follow up no problems were noted in terms of weight bearing as well as hip function or evidence of recurrence.
